I grew up watching these videos on VHS when my family was stationed overseas. They are the BEST movies to watch as a child, and now as an adult. I used to watch them with my sister & grandmother everytime we went to visit her. We would have "Anne" marathons. I love the innocence of the characters in the film. In today's world, I think that we are missing the innocence. My daughter is now 10 and I can't wait for her to have an "Anne" marathon with me & my sister. You will not regret watching these movies. I have to buy them on DVD now because I have watched them so many times on VHS that the tape actually broke!

This trilogy on DVD is a blessing from lugging around 9 VHS tapes for years!

Since my childhood, Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea have been among my all time favorite movies - nothing will ever be quite like them. The Canadian locations are gorgeous, the costuming and script superb, and the actors will make you laugh and cry each time you watch it. Thankfully the movies are based closely enough to the books, with more details omitted than added to true storyline - in fact the film will surpass any reader's expectations.
It breaks my heart that the cast was 15 years too old for the 3rd film - but the "continuing story" keeps in step with the characters in their new dramas and adventures.

If you have not taken the Anne journey - do yourself a favor..... be transferred to Victorian country times with these films - the wholesome goodness and spectacular story will make any generation watch it again and again.

I had to return this product the first time because the first disc got stuck part way through. I can't tell you how annoying it is to be watching and 14 minutes into the second side of Part 1 just freezes. So I mailed it back, got another copy a few days later, and everything was fine up till Part 3. The disc is labelled wrong!! I put it in, was watching and getting confused, but figured, okay, so they jumped right into the action with this one. An hour later, credits rolled, and that's when I realized that that they they labelled Side One and Side Two backwards. I missed the whole first half of the third installment. At this point I was too irritated to go back and watch the first half. Can't recommend this product.
